Background. Virtually a sahm to 2 primary aged dc and a co sleeping breastfed 20 month old. 2 primary aged dc manage to trash uniform daily. In addition seem to do same to cubs uniform etc etc. Toddler obviously needs clean clothes daily as do I. This week alone I have had to change bedding twice due to leaky nappies. Now don't get me wrong I try to iron as little as possible to make task easier.
I just get so pissed off that dh and dc seem to think it is exclusively my job to do it and all the housework and childcare and bedtime, bathing etc etc.
Just this week I have left clean laundry taken off line on stairgate to go upstairs. Dh walked straight passed it. I washed main bed bedding but mattress protector wasn't dry so left it on bed to be put on. Dh dumps it on the floor when he wnt to bed. I paired some socks on main bed but didn't finish them. Again dh just dumps them in laundry basket. Today was the last straw. At the moment I have been washing older dcs clothes in preparation for toddler dd to use them. So quite abit of laundry is in the cot. Dh wants to take down cot and set up toddler bed to try and stop me and dd cosleeping. I said well the laundry in there needs sorting first.
So what does dh do? He pisses off into the study to play computer games leaving me to care for our dc and somehow magically catch up on laundry at the same time.
He was also responsible for packing clothes for one ds and went and brought him new socks as the ones in the drawers weren't paired.
I have just lost the plot with dh. Going through menopause and feeling crap has not helped.
Was I unreasonable to tell him to get off his lazy arse and be a parent/grown up and help? In a way I know probably lazy arse was a bit strong as he works hard at work during the week and earns a good salary which enable me to sahm / run a very small business.
But I work hard too. I was also awake twice in night due to poxy freezer alarm going off.
